The goal of this Funding Opportunity is to advance the understanding about risk reduction and protective factors involved in promoting cognitive health and mitigating the changes that occur in the onset and progression of cognitive impairment and dementia in aging, while considering the intersection of different factors, including the social determinants of health and other structural and systemic barriers. The intent is also to build training and mentoring capacity for the next generation of researchers in the field.

CIHR-IG is pleased to be partnering with Ataxia Canada, Cystic Fibrosis Canada and approximately 20 international funding organizations in the context of this European Joint Programme on Rare Diseases (EJP RD) call for proposals 2023. CIHR-IG is committed to expanding and improving the diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases by creating the conditions needed to bring together creative, dynamic, interdisciplinary teams of researchers from across Canada and the European Community (EC) to collaborate for better health outcome for the rare disease patient community. The topic of the call is natural history studies addressing unmet needs in rare diseases.

The purpose of the National Women's Health Research Initiative (NWHRI), a joint initiative between CIHR and Women and Gender Equality Canada is to advance a coordinated research program that addresses under-researched and high-priority areas of women's health. The National Women's Health Research Initiative will help to ensure new evidence improves women's, girls', and gender-diverse people's care and health outcomes.

As a part of CIHR's Brain Health Cognitive Impairment in Aging (BHCIA) Research Initiative, they are launching this opportunity to support the development of knowledge syntheses, using an equity, diversity and inclusion lens, to assess the current state of knowledge and evidence base, and identify strengths and gaps in research areas related to the promotion of brain health and risk reduction for age-related cognitive impairment. This will include a specific focus on knowledge mobilization practices throughout the research process to increase the usefulness and uptake of findings to relevant stakeholders, including partners and knowledge users, as well as the creation of culturally appropriate, equitable and inclusive targeted knowledge mobilization (KM) products.

TRANSCAN-3 launches its third Joint Transnational Call for research proposals (JTC 2023) on the following topic: “Translational research on cancer epigenetics.” The expected outcome of the call is to improve the efficacy of current detection, diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of cancers, through the development of novel approaches based on a better understanding of cancer epigenetics. The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to stimulate new partnerships between researchers and clinicians and support original, high-quality projects, with significant clinical impact.

The intent of this funding opportunity is to address innovative research questions related to the efficacy/effectiveness, feasibility, development and/or evaluation of best practices, guidance documents and uptake of Post-Traumatic Stress Injuries services by Public Safety Personnel.

This funding opportunity is a one-year grant to catalyze and support research efforts of Canadian researchers to use the available CLSA data in order to better understand how the biological, medical, psychological, social, lifestyle and/or economic aspects of people’s lives have an impact in both maintaining health and in the development of disease and disability as people age.

The Project Grant program is designed to capture ideas with the greatest potential for important advances in fundamental or applied health-related knowledge, health care, health systems, and/or health outcomes by supporting projects of research proposed and conducted by individual researchers or groups of researchers in all areas of health. The best ideas may stem from new, incremental, innovative, and/or high-risk lines of inquiry or knowledge translation approaches.

This funding opportunity supports research to inform standards specific to mental health and/or substance use health services for children, youth, and young adults (ages 0 to 25), including the perinatal period.

The INMD Training and Community Support Grant will support INMD research communities, including researchers and Partner Organizations, to build training programs in research domains largely and directly relevant to the Institute's mandate. INMD will fund a total of two grants with a maximum amount of $50,000 for a single grant.

This funding opportunity supports proposals that advance health knowledge through the analysis of existing large cohort, survey and/or administrative datasets.

The Operating Grants in Diabetes, Psychosocial Health, Prevention and Self-Management will support research into approaches that will build on successful models of care, knowledge mobilization, and optimization of self-management.

This funding opportunity will support research that leverages existing data to improve the health, wellness and health equity of urban populations.

The THINC Implementation Science Team Grants will support interdisciplinary research teams dedicated to understanding the implementation, evaluation, adaptation, and/or and spread/scale of transformative evidence-informed integrated care policies and interventions that will advance the Quadruple Aim and health equity

Recognizes exceptional contributions in the area of population and public health research.

These grants will support the creation of three networks, one each in the areas of Skin Health, Bone Health, and Muscular Dystrophy. The networks will provide research leadership, stimulate innovative research and practices, strengthen research capacity, and provide a forum engaging the research community and its partners.

Recognizes an outstanding contribution to health services and policy research, policy and/or care delivery in Canada.

This funding opportunity will support the creation of several virtual hubs to form a Pan-Canadian Women’s Health Coalition. The maximum amount per grant is up to $210,000 per year for up to 4 years, for a total of $840,000 per grant.

This funding opportunity will support projects evaluating domestic or international population-level interventions to reduce inappropriate antimicrobial use and prevent the spread of resistant pathogens in humans, animals and the environment. The maximum amount per grant is $150,000 per year for up to two years, for a total of $300,000 per grant.
